I agree. If I just heard the audio and didn't see the video, I wouldn't think the car they are talking about is the FRS/BRZ fighter. I would think it would be the next Corolla / Civic - people who care about point A to B but also happen to be young and stylin'.

So NOT the message Toyota and Subaru delivered when they were teasing the FT86 concept.

Where do you get 510 from i-d-x?

I = 1, V = 5, X= 10, L = 50, C = 100, D = 500, M = 1000

If you wanted to write 510 - it comes out to 'DX'. The i messes everything up. DiX means 509, DXi is 511. Unless the 'i' is silent... lol

That's what I get for typing and making a call at the same time.

Here are some photos I took from Super Car Sunday at Woodland Hills, CA during the IDx in SoCal tour

Quirky but aggressive


Awesome approach to using jeans as a seat material

This bodes well for the next 10-20 years of amateur production car road racing.
